Description

Pleurotomariidae, common name the "slit snails", is a family of large marine gastropods in the clade Vetigastropoda. This family is a very ancient lineage; there were numerous species in the geological past. Thegenus includes several hundred fossil forms, mostly Paleozoic. It is one of the oldest gastropod families, commencing in the Cambrian.
